If a is a divisor of 12, then

a \in \{-12, -6, -4, -3, -2, -1, 1, 2, 3, 4, 6, 12\}

If 3 is a factor (i.e. divisor) of a, then a can only be one of the elements of this set that are multiples of 3, so

a \in \{-12, -6, -3, 3, 6, 12\}

But a is positive, so there are 3 possible values a can have.

-BARSIC- [3]

z = 37°

Step-by-step explanation:

The exterior angle theorem says that the sum of two internal angles is equal to the exterior angle

In this case the sum of z and z+4 will be equal to z+41

Writing mathematically

z + z+ 4 = z + 41\\2z+4 = z + 41\\2z -z = 41 -4\\z = 37

Hence

z = 37°

The diagram above, not drawn to scale,shows a triangle, ABC, with area 28units². Show workings.
Valentin [98]

A. (0,-6)
plug in the area to the area formula for a triangle (A=1/2bh). so 28=1/2b(4) [since the height is 4]. divide by 4 (7=1/2b). multiply by 2/divide by 1/2 (14=b). the base equals 14 units long.
